At CBC our goal is to reach the kids of today’s world, in today’s culture and style with the age-old truth of God’s Word, and lead them to a life changing relationship with Jesus Christ. We strive to show children that God and His Word are relevant to the issues we face today, and that they can be fun! On Sunday mornings we focus on a specific virtue for a month. We have both large and small group settings where children both listen and participate. They learn to use God’s Word, and how it applies to the issues they face each day. We worship together and enjoy refreshments as well.
We have Club 6, especially for 6th graders. This club meets on Sunday afternoons, and explores “All I need to Know to be a Teenager,” and plays games together.
Missions are also very important. We are called to reach out to those around us in need. We will offer a Mission Night once a month on Sunday nights for children to learn about and participate in missions opportunities in our town, state, country, and around the world!
Family ministry is an important focus of our Children’s ministry. While our time with children each Sunday is important, we know that through everyday life experiences, parents have much more teaching time with their children. Therefore we put a great deal of emphasis on the family. We have a Connect Group for adults that studies the same virtue lesson and Scripture text that the children are studying. Following Connection Place, we have a Family Production each Sunday. In this production, called iWonder, parents and children worship and learn together through drama and media presentations, worship, and more. This fun avenue of learning helps children and parents apply what they’ve learned throughout the week.
In addition to the opportunities on Sunday mornings, there are opportunities throughout the year for families to grow together. Through our Malachi Ministry, in the works at the moment, we are focusing on families and ways to help them grow together. The relationship between parents and children is important, as well as the parents’ relationship with one another; we strive to provide events throughout the year to facilitate growth in both avenues.
